Once I thought my mountain strong

Author: Newton Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 116 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Once I thought my mountain strong, Firmly fixed no more to move; Then my Saviour was my song, Then my soul was filled with love: Those were happy, golden days, Sweetly spent in prayer and praise. 2 Little then myself I knew, Little thought of Satan's power; Now I feel my sins renew, Now I feel the stormy hour: Sin has put my joys to flight, Sin has turned my day to night. 3 Saviour, shine and cheer my soul, Bid my dying hopes revive, Make my wounded spirit whole, Far away the tempter drive: Speak the word and set me free, Let me live alone to thee.

Savior, whither should we go

Author: Nikolai Frederick Severin Grundtvig, 1783-1872; J. C. Aaberg Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: Savior, whither should we go From the truest friend we know, From the Son of God above, From the Fount of saving love, Who in all this world of strife Hath alone the word of life. No, I dare not turn from Thee, Though Thy word oft chasten me, For throughout this world, O Lord, Death is still the cruel word. Whoso saves the soul from death Brings redemption, life and breath. “Eat my flesh and drink my blood.” Saith our Lord, so kind and good. “Whoso takes the bread and wine, Shall receive my life divine, Be redeemed from all his foes And arise as I arose.” Hear Him then, my heart distressed, Beating anxious in my breast. Take Thy Savior at His word, Meet Him at His altar-board, Eat His body, drink His blood, And obtain eternal good.

Open wide the gate of heaven

Author: John Brownlie Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: Open wide the gate of heaven, Let the glorious Victor in, 50 For to Him alone 'tis given, Who hath quelled the boast of sin-- To ascend the azure height, Girt with an all-conquering might. Night and darkness flew before Him, Sin and death before Him fell; Angel hosts in bliss, adore Him! Who hath spoiled the depths of hell, And ascends the azure height, Girt with an all-conquering might. Ah, the mocking and deriding, Ah, the Cross on which He hung, And the night, God's presence hiding, While the darts of hell were flung,-- Now He mounts the azure height, Girt with an all-conquering might. Hail Him now, His task completed, All He strove for man to win; Victor, Who the foe defeated-- Death, and hell, and vaunting sin, For He mounts the azure height, Girt with an all-conquering might. Jesus, Lord of life undying! From the throne where Thou art set, Heed Thy followers who are sighing, But can ne'er Thy love forget, And beyond the azure height, Raise them by Thy saving might,

Gethsemane

Author: H. Petursson; Charles Venn Pilcher Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Jesus in Gethsemane Lyrics: Jesus in Gethsemane Bowed with mortal strife I see: Conscience stings me, for I know 'Twas my sin constrained Him so: All that weight of agony God's Son underwent for me. Lo! my sin doth heavier lie E'en than earth and sea and sky: Jesus in His Father's name Bears this universal frame; Yet the Word of God falls low, When He bears sin's weight of woe. Thus Thou givest me, Lord, Thy peace; Comfort which can never cease: Greater that paid ransom's worth Unto God than heaven and earth: By Thine agony I win Certain pardon for my sin.
